Puppies, Pillows and Burritos... Oh My!

Ok... I know I've said it before, but I PROMISE I will be blogging more now! My excuse for not blogging much (ok... at all!) for the past month or two is this:

Mr. C and I adopted a puppy! Meet Scout, our new Mini-Jack (Miniature Pinscher/Jack Russell Terrier) puppy! He is so much fun, even though he is definitely a handful at times. Scout is way too smart for his own good a lot of times, and is in the "terrible twos" stage where he's gotten a little 'tude with us. Just yesterday, he jumped up on the couch and when I told him "off" he proceeded to dramatically flop down, look at me and bark. All in all though, we're having a great time with him, and he's totally spoiled!

I do have two great deals to share with you today!

First, if you live near a Dillard's, try to stop in ASAP! They just marked all of their clearance an additional 40% off, and there are great deals to be had. Our Dillard's here had tons of cute shoes and boots (originally $100-200) for less than $20. While I love shopping their clothes and shoes when they have great sales, my favorite department to shop for bargains is the home department. I've bought all sorts of great gifts, decor items, bedding, etc. for a fraction of the cost. I've been wanted to get some new throw pillows and freshen up our living room for awhile, but with the new puppy I did not want to spend $80+ a pillow in case they fell victim to a teething pup. Well today at Dillard's I found three fabulous Michael Kors pillows (each originally $70+) for only $12! I also found the softest black zebra throw for $15, and this adorable crown spreader for $4! I'm thinking about heading to the other Dillard's near us this evening with Mr. C "so he can get some new dress shirts..." and so I can see what the other Dillard's has in their home department! ;)

Mr. C is OBSESSED with Chipotle. When we lived in Pensacola (where the closest Chipotle was six hours away...) he had major withdrawals and would literally go to Chipotle first stop whenever we went home to visit family. If he could, we would have Chipotle for dinner probably every night, and lunch most days as well. I was so excited to learn that you can score a coupon for buy one, get one free Chipotle (burritos, tacos, salads and bowls) by going to the fan page for the new show America's Next Great Restaurant, liking it, watching the quick promo video and then printing your coupon! Looks like Mr. C and I may be going to Chipotle for dinner tonight!
